You can make music with just about anything: a trumpet, a blade of grass placed between your thumbs, a computer program, an assembly of wheels and resonators (that’s how the intonarumori Italian futurists at the beginning of the 20th century). Or with a pive.
With a pive, yes – that is to say a pine cone, or a cone, depending on how you name the strobili of conifers. But we still have to make this sound ring. This is precisely the goal of the “pivophone”, a device invented in 2019 by Michael Egger and Jen Morris, and since amended by the latter. This Saturday she will present a new evolution as part of the Akouphène festival, which is taking place these days at Cave 12, in Geneva.
